The Sun have claimed that Arsenal will pay Ajax £34 million in transfer fees to secure the services of Timber, who can operate as a central defender or as a right-back.

Jurrien Timber’s brother, Shamier, has shared a photo of what appears to be a farewell party.

The photo posted on Instagram, which has since been deleted, includes a cardboard cutout of Timber wearing an Arsenal shirt.

Exciting

It seems that it is only a matter of time before Arsenal announce the signing of Jurrien Timber from Ajax.

Timber is a very good and promising young defender who can only get better under Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta.

That the Dutchman can play as a centre-back or as a right-back will give Arteta options at the back.
